New guy, needs name.
Added 2022-10-20 00:54:49 +0000 UTCSo, I've had this silly idea floating around in my head for the last few weeks. I'm certain I'm not the first person to think of this, but y'know the term "Silver fox", to refer to an older guy who's starting to go grey but still absolutely slays it? I thought it might be a fun idea to have a silver fox... silver fox.
Now, a normal artist would probably just do a few doodles and call it a day, but after finishing the last model I did as a commission a few days ago, because I'm an insane person, I started fiddling around with a this idea just for fun to see what would happen, just to see if I could maybe get a tiny bit of it started in the few days I had before having to most on to the monthly patreon stuff, and then, uh, I also finished it.
So, I guess we have a new guy. Gimme name suggestions!
He'll definitely need some refinements, I kinda just finished slapping him together and this is the first viewing, he'll need some polishing. But an alright start I think!
One difficulty I ran into here was hitting the look of the age range I was aiming for. I kinda thought that having the greying around his muzzle and the grey hair would be a good way to sell it, but I kinda didn't think about the fact that silver foxes are already kinda mottled silver everywhere already so it doesn't really stand out much from the rest of his fur. I think I got close though, with a tiny bit more tweaking I think he'll get there. I feel like a pair of glasses might help, but I just gave two other characters glasses and it's gonna start to feel cheesy if I keep doing that, hah. I dunno.
Anyway... older fox guy who absolutely fucks. Gimme your thoughts and your name suggestions. :P

Albedo was my gateway into furry comics. Omaha the Cat Dancer was my gateway to furry porn. I got into this life in the mid-eighties (84/85). As The Horror Geek likes to say, "Christ, I'm old!"

2022-10-21 01:04:26 +0000 UTCDang, you've been in the game for a long time! Depending on when in the 80's, odds are good you've been in the fandom since before I even existed. :P

2022-10-20 04:55:56 +0000 UTCWow honestly, that age nuance hits really well! I think you're definitely on the right track to give him that 'experienced' look, ha! As for name... Sildeo, Mattheo, Isaac, Castel are some that come to mind. More mature and proper names than usual! Super looking forward to adding him to the roster, he'll be a lot of fun!

2022-10-20 03:09:12 +0000 UTCHhmm, so just starting to go gray, I guess that's why he doesn't look that old in the end (or because I'm old myself...). How about... something with R. Mmm Ralph? Roy?
